Presidential Nominations?

[futuremid2018]

Hello everyone.

I am a college reapplicant. Last year I received a nomination to all 3 service academies from my congressman. I am applying this year as a college student to the USNA and I have applied and interviewed with all of my nomination sources. I am in PA-04 and interviewed with both senators and my congressman. All interviews went very well and my congressman's staff told me I was being seriously considered. However, I have not heard back from any of them yet.

I received a presidential nomination in August. With that in mind, assuming I do NOT receive a congressional nomination, are my chances slim to none when my file is reviewed in January?

I ended HS with a extensive resume and record, I have a 2200 SAT, and I just finished my first semester at a senior military college with a 3.9 GPA in USNA plebe/advanced courses, as a varsity athlete. Does anyone here with experience think there will still be presidential appointment spots open in January/February? I have finished my application and sent in my CO's recommendation and my college transcript. Also, I applied for the Vice Presidential nomination months ago, to cover all bases.

Last but not least, merry Christmas

The Presidential slate is 100 per yr. The pool can be anywhere from 400-500+, so the odds are not as good as an MOC, but better than an ROTC nom.

Things to remember:
SAs love reapplicants.
Just like the MOC slates if you don't win an appointment from there, you will go in the pool.

Are you in ROTC, or just a Corps at the SMC? If so, did you apply for an ROTC nom? If so, even without the MOC, you will have 2 slates before you hit the pool if you did. Get an MOC, and that makes it 3. Apply for the VP., and you are at 4.

Good luck.
